Cottage Cheese - I used a Fat Free Cottage Cheese for this recipe. If you can't find Fat Free you can use a Low Fat Cottage Cheese.
Greek Yogurt - Any fat free plain Greek yogurt works well for this recipe.
Monkfruit Sweetener - LAKANTO Maple Flavored Syrup is the zero point sweetener for this recipe. If you are not a fan of Monkfruit sweetener as it does contain erythritol you can do an even swap with Maple Syrup or Agave.
1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F - Coat an 8 Inch Springform Pan with cooking spray - wrap the outside of the pan with foil.
2: In a food processor, blend your cottage cheese until smooth. Add in your Monkfruit sweetener, Greek yogurt and vanilla extract. Continue blending until well combined then add in your eggs; process until smooth.
3: Pour your batter into your Springform pan. Bake until the cheese is golden around the edges about 1 hour and 5-15 minutes. When baking is complete remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.
4: Cover the top loosely with foil and refrigerate for 3-4 hours until chilled and set. Remove from refrigerator and take off the aluminum foil and open the latch on your Springform pan and lift up gently to remove.
5: Serve with fresh raspberries and decorate as desired. Cut into 8 slices. Serving size is one slice. Enjoy!!!
Whipped cottage cheese has a light and creamy texture, similar to whipped cream cheese, but with a tangy and slightly salty flavor. It has a fresh and milky taste with a subtle hint of acidity, which makes it a perfect ingredient for cheesecake.
Cottage cheese is relatively low in calories and fat, but high in calcium. Calcium is important for bone health, but it may also play a role in weight loss.
The ideal way to store cheesecake is to wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in the refrigerator. The cheesecake should be stored in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out or absorbing odors from other foods in the fridge.
- Use egg whites instead of whole eggs to reduce the amount of cholesterol in the cheesecake.
- Add fresh fruit like berries or sliced bananas to the top of the cheesecake instead of using sugary fruit toppings.
- Use a non-stick baking spray or parchment paper to reduce the amount of added fat from greasing the baking dish.
- Use a small baking dish or muffin tins to make individual cheesecakes instead of one large cheesecake to control portion sizes.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely before slicing to prevent it from crumbling and falling apart.
- Serve the cheesecake with a dollop of low-fat whipped cream or Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream.
- Enjoy a small slice of cheesecake as a treat, and balance it out with a healthy diet and exercise routine to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

if using egg whites only do you still use 3, or do you need to up the amount?
if you make the cheesecake in muffin tins how long do you bake them?Is it better to use paper liners in the muffin tins? i am so excited to make this recipe.
